| Abstract: | This study was conducted with the aim of investigating the interplay of Death Anxiety, Health Anxiety and Mental Wellbeing in the ongoing COVID - 19 pandemic. Cross sectional research design has been used in the study. Owing to the stringent lockdown situation, snowball sampling technique was used. The sample size was 65 participants (39 women and 26 men) comprising young adults who are university students falling in the age group of 22 to 28 years. The data was collected in virtual mode, by using Google forms. The researchers obtained a voluntary, prior written consent from them. It was ensured that their confidential information would be taken utmost care of and not be disclosed. The tools employed for the study were: Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale [55]. Death Anxiety Questionnaire [13], and Health Anxiety Inventory. [45]. The data was analyzed by using One-way ANOVA and Pearson Correlation. No significant relationship was found in the variables under study. However, there exists a weak positive relationship between Death Anxiety and Health Anxiety that came out to be 0.139. The relationship between Health anxiety and Mental wellbeing was also found to have a positive weak correlation (r=0.03). The results, along with the limitations and suggestions for future research have been elaborated in the paper. |
